Back when Lith had first acquired his second life force, he had joked about slaughtering people and pinning the blame on a black scaled monster. He had never expected for a day to come when he would turn the joke into reality.
Lith flew towards the commercial district. He needed an isolated zone for his ambush, to have as few witnesses as possible. He couldn't afford to raise rumors about a demonic being appearing in the same city he was.
His nature as a hybrid was a double edged sword. It gave him an advantage against most human enemies, but it had to remain secret at all costs. It was necessary not only for it to keep being an effective weapon, but also as a matter of survival.
Lith doubted that liches like Inxialot or even the human Council of the Awakened would leave him alone if they knew about the existence of a new power. He was certain of it because it was what he would have done.
